Juneteenth – Self Equanimity http://selfequanimity.com Current Affairs Wed, 22 Jun 2022 06:04:01 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.4 https://i0.wp.com/selfequanimity.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/SE-Copy.png?fit=32%2C32 Juneteenth – Self Equanimity http://selfequanimity.com 32 32 176655959 Freedom is coming !!! http://selfequanimity.com/1835-2/ http://selfequanimity.com/1835-2/#respond Wed, 22 Jun 2022 06:00:18 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1835 Well, we are told about the history and the significance of Juneteenth, I don’t know what to make of it but it seems to me that some people don’t want black people to forget about slavery so they can throw crumbs off their table and say look at what we have done for you,(not that slavery should be forgotten about) sure Juneteenth is now a holiday, is not like they say oh every black person should just take a day off, nope it’s a holiday where people have to work because they can’t make ends meet.   Are holidays all we want ???? I always caution black people we should be careful about who we support, sometimes are enemies look just like us. We are supposed to be very happy about the holiday we just got, much like Martin Luther King day and all other days that have no significance to us, even though we are told they are about us.

We don’t even seem to realize when the economy goes bad, it is our people who suffer more than any other race,  I don’t hear anything about “feel good” Biden anymore. He is not racist I suppose,  the funny thing is that father’s day happens to fall on the same day as the Holiday we were given.  This is the president who has separated more black fathers from their families, than Trump will ever separate at the border, yet we only seem to remember that Trump was a racist. He wrote laws to criminalize crack the cheap version of cocaine thereby locking up a lot of black men. I don’t see why people don’t see the irony here, we are celebrating fathers day on Juneteenth, which is supposed to be about freedom from a president who locked up more black men and took them away from their families than any other president in history. I don’t see how people don’t get this!!!!
